  2. 1. Endothelin receptor changes during inflammation in the lung

    Author : Bengt Granström; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Andningsorganen; Respiratory system; Upregulation; Smooth muscle cells; Smoking; Sephadex; Remodeling; Rat; mRNA; Human; ETB receptor; ETA receptor; Lung; Endothelin; Asthma bronchiale; Contraction;

    Abstract : Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is an extremely potent smooth muscle spasmogen well known from the vascular system but also active within the airways. The importance of its proinflammatory and co-mitogenic properties has become increasingly evident, the endothelin system also having been shown to mimic the signal features of asthma, COPD and other pulmonary diseases.

  4. 2. The dynamics of red blood cells and iron status during infancy

    Author : Marie Larsson; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Barnreferensintervall; Röda blodkroppar; Erytrocyter; Extremt för tidig födsel; Erytropoes; Klinisk kemi; Järnstatus; Ferritin; sTfR; Neonatologi; Pediatrik; Fetal tillväxthämning; Referensintervall; Pediatric reference intervals; Reference limits; Extremely preterm birth; Fetal growth restriction; Clinical chemistry; Iron status; Red blood cells; Erythrocyte; Transfusion; Ferritin; sTfR; Hemoglobin; Neonatal; Reference intervals; Umbilical cord blood; Infancy; Iron deficiency; Anemia; Acute phase response; soluble Transferrin receptor; Neonatal intensive care; Erythropoiesis; Birth; Infant;

    Abstract : Red blood cell (RBC) and iron status biomarkers are commonly used in clinical diagnostics. However, interpretations of infant test results are inherently challenging. READ MORE

  5. 3. Deciphering control of Mechano-Transcription Activators of σ54-RNA polymerase

    Author : Henrik Seibt; Victoria Shingler; Uwe H. Sauer; Ray Dixon; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Transcriptional regulation; P. putida; V. cholerae; AAA ; bEBP; B-linker; DmpR; Phenol catabolism; VCA0117; Type VI secretion; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : To survive and proliferate, bacteria have to respond to a plethora of fluctuating signals within their habitats. Transcriptional control is one crucial entry point for such signal-responsive adaption responses. READ MORE

  6. 4. Presence of extrathyroidal TSH-receptor, with special reference to its role in neonatal regulation of lipolysis

    Author : Annika Janson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : adaptation; adipocytes; Graves disease; growth hormone; human; hyper thyroidism; infant; insulin; metabolism; TSHR stimulating antibodies; thyrotropin; TSH.;

    Abstract : At birth, the newborn child must utilize stored energy until lactation is established. The main source of energy is fat - that is, triglycerides stored in the white adipose tissue. This study deals with hormonal regulation of lipolysis in the neonatal period. READ MORE

  7. 5. Heme A synthase from Bacillus subtilis and Aeropyrum pernix

    Author : Anna Lewin; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heme A synthesis; heme A; heme A synthase; CtaA; cCtaA; cytochrome a; Aeropyrum pernix; Bacillus subtilis;

    Abstract : Respiration in animals, plants and many bacteria is dependent on heme A, which functions as a prosthetic group in a-type cytochromes (terminal energy-transducing oxidases in the electron transport chain that reduce molecular oxygen to water). Heme A synthase catalyses a chemically very demanding reaction, the conversion of one specific methyl side-group of heme O to a formyl group of heme A. READ MORE
